Method and system for transmitting tactile instructions to a human body

Abstract

A device designed to be worn on the human body includes attachment means which place the device such that it rests directly against a body part, and at least one functional module which is connected to the attachment means, wherein the functional module comprises a wireless receiver and at least one tactile stimulation module. The stimulation module is designed to forward tactile stimuli to the body part to which it is attached. The wireless receiver is designed to receive instructions and to activate the stimulation module.

Description

BACKGROUNDTechnical Field[0001]The present disclosure provides a method and a device for the tactile control of a person with a tactile stimuli (vibrotactile, electrotactile and mechanotactile).Description of the Related Art[0002]The basic problem were complaints of sportspersons and patients in rehabilitation treatment about the use of sports apps, cardio machines, heart rate belts, heart rate monitors, smartphones, mobile pulse oximeters (oxygen saturation of the blood), wearable computers (body-borne computers of any type), sports wristbands, mobile sphygmomanometers and all mobile measuring instruments which measure vital parameters (pulse rate, warmth, blood pressure, humidity, etc.); all these pieces of equipment can measure the different parameters but there is no adjustment of the training activity to the present circumstances and preconditions.[0003]On the one hand, it should be avoided that training is not hard enough, i.e., ineffective on the whole, but overexertion and a...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent provides a method and device for individual tactile control. It takes into account the user's vital parameters to ensure optimal training. It also provides a navigation system that allows the user to experience the destination through vibrations on the wristbands without being distracted by a screen. Additionally, it can detect electrical signals on the body surface to perform relevant monitoring and training functions. The patent also highlights the need for precise adjustment of training activity to the individual's circumstances, as this is essential for effective training.

Problems solved by technology

In other cases, it may be impossible or require much effort to leave the home, for example due to a handicap or illness, but it is not possible to control the person in a precise manner during training since the equipment only displays the upper pulse rate limit or the lower pulse rate limit (the training range).

All these pieces of equipment can measure the heart rate but it is not possible to control the user in a precise manner during training since the equipment only displays the upper pulse rate limit or the lower pulse rate limit (the training range).
